Music as a passion

To me music is one of those answers to what it's all about. I started out with the Recorder as everybody else in Sweden at this time. When I worked my way through the Clarinet and Piano I ended up with an electric guitar having myself a real rock band. Through music I've met so many fantastic people and I've learned so many things about life, relations, people, business. You know being in a band is much like being in a family, and musicians are a lot like children.

I think I was about fourteen when I first got to this place called Apromus. It was a breeding ground for talented young kids who wanted to play music and I got stucked for about ten years at that joint. There has been a lot of bands through out the years but here are some of them:
